Standard Operating People
The operations community you've been looking for.
When senior ops leaders need real solutions, they come here. If you're a Director in ops, supply chain, or logistics who's tired of figuring everything out alone, this is the network that's quietly changing careers.











What makes SOP different?
Our members are the senior leaders actually doing the work—Directors, VPs, and executives who've built and scaled operations at companies you know and love. When you ask a question here, you get answers from people who've faced the same challenges.
This isn't about networking for networking's sake. It's about connecting with people who genuinely want to help each other succeed.
Connect with ops leaders through intimate dinners, executive events, and Slack access. Every connection is strategic—these are relationships with people who open doors and offer references when it matters most.
Join our dedicated Slack where 500+ senior ops minds tackle everything from "How do I scale fulfillment for Black Friday?" to "Should I take this VP offer?" Real problems, real expertise, real-time answers.
Access learning sessions and career development opportunities designed to up-level your operations expertise. Plus get honest intel about companies and roles from people who've been inside.
